Updating a CIDict with data like {'A': 1, 'a': 2} would lead to data
loss since only one of the items would get to the CIDict.
This can result in non-obvious bugs similar to this one in python-ldap:

Raise an error in this case; any resolution must be done by the caller.
This is a set of libraries common to IPA clients and servers though mostly
geared currently towards command-line tools.
A brief overview:
config.py - identify the IPA server domain and realm. It uses python-dns to
try to detect this information first and will fall back to
/etc/ipa/default.conf if that fails.
ipautil.py - helper functions
entity.py - entity is the main data type. User and Group extend this class
(but don't add anything currently).
ipavalidate.py - basic data validation routines
